Cybernet’s Virtual Systems Integration Lab (VSIL) is an integrated simulation platform for the development,
modification, and prototyping of vehicle systems and components. VSIL was developed by Cybernet and the
U.S. Army Tank-Automotive Research Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC).

• Labster offers students a
true-to-life lab experience
at a fraction of the cost of
a real lab.
• You can supplement your
teaching with virtual labs
to prepare your students
for the wet lab, to help
them understand difficult
concepts, to engage them
with your science course,
and more.
• Research shows that
students learn twice as
much when traditional
lectures are
supplemented by
Labster’s virtual labs.
